Chapter 316 - Mr. Unknown (1/2)

By the time they cleaned his office and got dressed, it was way past dinner. Everyone in the office was already gone.

Lena was too tired for dinner and she slept in the car while Kris drove them back to his penthouse. He carried her up but she woke up a few minutes later.

They took a shower together and then hopped to the bed.

”When is your flight?” Lena asked.

”8 a.m. I am leaving with Lay and Tye.” Kris hugged Lena. ”I'll pick my suit and have someone send your dress to you so you can have it by the time you fly out too.”

Kris's gang were flying out to City H one night early so they can all have the bachelor's party. Lena will be flying out the next day with Gary and James, finally using the private jet that Madam Li had gifted her.

”KRis..?” Lena called his name.

”Hmm?”

”Never mind. I will tell it to you another time.” Lena replied.

”You sure? I am not sleepy yet.”

”Yeah. Another time.” Lena closed her eyes as she snuggled warmly next to Kris. ”I love you.” She softly spoke.

”I love you more.” Kris kissed the top of her head and closed his eyes too.

The next morning, Lena woke up early to help make sure Kris got everything. And even if he missed something, she can bring it for him when she comes.

They had breakfast together and then Kris left.

Lena was already wide awake, so she back down to her apartment and started working on some sketches. Later that day, she called the real estate lady and rescheduled the showing for a different date.

Madam Li also called Lena to informed her that she was not flying out. She wanted to drive there instead and enjoy some scenery.

”Are you sure, I can join you on your road trip too if you want.” Lena asked.

”It's alright sweetie. It will be a good time for me to have some time to myself.” Madam Li replied.

Lena paused and wondered. 'Doesn't she always have a lot of time to herself now that I have taken most of Kris' time?'

”Alright then. Just call me or Kris when you arrived. We can go to the wedding together.”

”Yes. Have a safe flight.” Madam Li spoke.

After the call ended, Lena texted Kris so he was informed about his mother's decision too. Kris said that the bachelor's party was at 8 p.m. He sent Lena a nice photo of everyone but he cropped out Hugh.

It was the first time Lena had seen anything physical thing about Hugh. She still does not know why Kris does not let her see Hugh.

As Lena was preparing to spend the rest of her day at her parents, she received a text from an unknown person.

Unknown: I want to meet with you.

Lena ignored the text and grabbed her bags to head out. However, when she got into the elevator, she received another text.

Unknown: It's regarding a life and death situation with Kris.

Lena: Who are you?

Unknown: Neither friend nor foe.

”...” Lena did not like that answer. She tried to call Gary but she noticed her phone was not going through. She tried calling Kris and several other people, even the emergency number, but nothing was going through.

Unknown: I jammed you're signal.

Lena: You're looking more of a foe than a friend.
